My trailblazing game industry bad-ass friend Rebecca Heineman has passed away.

Fuck cancer.

Friends, let’s not forget her: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rebecca...

Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City. The script and performances are so bad that it hurts. Zombies are just painted white. Incredibly bad CGI for monsters. Shots are so TV-alike. The only plus is some scenery resembling the original Resident Evil games. Avoid it #moviereview

Wow! The perfect throwback, a magazine for typing programs. I learned that way! 😀

I think I saw this book in a bookstore many years ago, but now I got it in a second-hand bookstore. No one read it ever. I don't buy books so old (1974), but I found this one interesting because it has a listing of a sample operating system in assembler for IBM/360. #retro #os

UgoXprrrt / Flipnote Installer · GitLab Tool for installing Flipnote Studio on unmodded (stock) Nintendo DSi systems.

Wow! Finally in 2025 someone made a way to install Flipnote Studio on a stock Nintendo DSi (it was available freely in the store but it disappeared) You only need a SD memory and the software in this page #retro #retrogaming #flipnote gitlab.com/ugoxprrrt/fl...

I'm pretty sure that both have a very different syntax, except for the core BASIC features.

I'm glad you like my book. There's a big difference between CVBasic and Family BASIC. CVBasic is compiled, this means it is order of magnitude faster than the interpreted Family BASIC. A friend has the Family Keyboard and does demos on our MSX events.

And who loses when the text/image resembles another people's property? You! You can lost your work, your grade, and more. It happens everywhere. Meanwhile, the rich thiefs in charge of the AI companies are smiling and saying they basically have the "divine right" to "fair use".

Seriously guys, you cannot use AI for generating texts, images, or videos. AI doesn't create things, it takes without permission content created by real people, violating robots.txt. They don't spend money creating their own content, they are stealing shamelessly! #real #ai

Now there are around 12 to 18 new games for Intellivision every year because IntyBASIC. And recently, I've made CVBasic for the Colecovision, and around 15 new games for Colecovision have been produced using CVBasic this last year 😉

Indeed! I discovered how so difficult is developing for Intellivision while making Princess Quest. IntyBASIC makes far easier the development of games. And my extended ECS BASIC makes justice to the Mattel ECS add-on, it becomes fun to use! 😀✌️
